We absolutely had to visit Tombstone while road tripping through the area. This is a great little old timey town and because we visited during December, it was decorated for Christmas and even had carolers in costume singing on the streets. It definitely makes you feel like you are walking through history. We happened to arrive in the afternoon and spent the first hour or so walking around checking everything out. When we were ready to take a stagecoach ride and do some of the activities like the OK corral, a lot of things were already closing down for the day. I wish we had known that beforehand so that we wouldn't have been such lollygaggers . We did meet a cowboy on the street near the old wild West town who said that Tombstone is a "strange place" that pretty much shuts down by 4:00 p.m.. He said the bars and restaurants would be open until about 8:00 or so and then the town would be totally dead, but that we should definitely return in the morning for the wild West shows and shootouts. We were able to do a couple of things and decided to spend the night, but we were actually able to make a reservation for a different activity in the morning so we headed out. Still we enjoyed our time in Tombstone and definitely recommend a stop here, especially if you're in the area. read more

A community that has created an amazing experience for tourists. Real life characters roam the dirt streets to add ambiance. Take a trolley ride to learn the history. Watch the shoot out at the OK Corral. Enjoy a local brewed beverage.... Sarsaparilla or ale. Enjoy music and a drink on the salons. Shop in the many shops. read more

Tombstone. Stompin' ground of Wyatt Earp & Co. Attended a re-enactment of a gunfight, with "Wyatt Earp", "Doc Holliday" and the gang. It is a tourist attraction to be sure, but not cheesy in the least. The dusty streets, the different businesses along the road plunges you right into the American Wild West - guns ablazing, the whole nine yards. Even the smell of horse manure. Thoroughly enjoyed it. read more

I've been here three times since we mived here in Arizona. And my husband loves showing this place to our guests. So much history lies here. Lots of interesting shops that hold the treasure from the past. They also have Gun fight show at OK Coral. If you like ghost tours, they have that as well. So much to see, kid and pet friendly. Not a lot of restaurants to choose from, but there's a few. read more

Don't come at me folks, but as a lover of all things History, ghost town etc Tombstone left me feeling like a giant money grab. While a few of the actual buildings are still standing most of the area youre seeing is just plain fake and redone. Lots of souvenir shops and actors walking the streets. Some of the shows are fun, but our family was in and out in what felt like an hour. I was bummed. I'd always wanted to come here and I left so disappointed. I'd say the court house, and the birdcage theatre are worth checking out. If you like reenactments and massive crowds Tombstone is for you. read more

This was our first (and last) visit. What you read about it being an overly touristy place is correct. It is. Gave it a two star versus one star review because it is a bucket list check-off location to visit. Otherwise, you can purchase only so many t-shirts, keyrings and other kitschy western motif items before enough becomes enough. We left after a teenage male came running up to me from behind exclaiming, "I saw you from other there and I like your outfit". I am a 66 year old male and was wearing a t-shirt, shorts and sneakers. I have no idea what that was about, put my hand up, told him "no, I am not interested", quickly turned away and kept walking. He further exclaimed something else at me as I walked away. But scared, I immediately left town. It's too bad, because to this day, rather than remembering anything else about Tombstone, Arizona, I only associate the place with that creepy experience. read more

Arizona 01-2024 Tony and I went to Tombstone Arizona and it was like walking back into time. I felt like I was in a Clint Eastwood western. I felt the wind on my face, the sun shining down, heard the clip clip sounds of shoes on the wooden sidewalks and smelled the dusty sand of the streets as it blew around...only thing missing was a tumble weed blowing across the street, a few horses tied at the watering daughts, and the cheezy Spaghetti western music ....you know the one I'm talking about!!! With the duud-da-da-da dah!! Trailing sound with Mexican horns...lol I absolutely loved visiting this town. It has a lazy laid back Hippie vipe with a bit of tourista tweak to it!! I could live here...I could handle it. If you're in the area, go there! Enjoy it. It's the closest you may ever get to the real past Wild Wild West...but don't fall for the cheesy tourista stuff...don't pay the extra dollars, find your own path...but travel it read more

Lots of photo ops with employees dressed in cowboy get ups and building with the names Doc Holliday, Wyatt Earp and OK Corral. Several stagecoaches passed buy taking visitors for a ride for a fee. Saw a trolley too. If you're a Wild West fan you can see a gun fight at a saloon or another show in a different building. The hawker repeats come see the next show, come grab a sasparilla. Encompasses a few streets with shops selling Stetson hats, knives, hand guns and western attire. I bought a copper bracelet, a pair of coyote earrings and a pin. A man asked if he could sit with me on a bench. At first I thought he could be a part of the stagecoach gang. He kept saying he was heading to the saloon to get drunk. Soon I realized the alcohol on his breath and was waiting for him to ask me for a couple of dollars. Luckily Doc and hubs were approaching in the distance so I wished him a good day and swiftly removed myself from this fellow. read more

This is a STRAIGHT-UP TOURIST TRAP. That being said, a "tourist trap" doesn't have to be a necessarily bad thing. I have a suspicion that about 90% of the "Wyatt Earp did _________ here." or "this dusty old antique was used by ___________" is straight up nonsense. The shootout at the OK Corral is the only real draw. It is adorable. It's hokey, but very entertaining. Everything else? It's just t-shirt shops, toy guns, bars, antique malls, "Native American" themed stuff, Tombstone (the movie) merch, a tatoo place, questionable food options, etc. It's about 300 yards of Key West/Myrtle Beach/Gatlinburg or whatever analog you are familiar with regionally. Is this a place to visit ALONG the way to somewhere else? Sure. Can you spend a whole day here? Probably not. I would never make this a place TO GO, but I would definately make it a place to drop by if you had the time to kill and didn't have high expectations. read more

total tourist trap. alot of not so great exhibits that have been commercialized to sell alot of junk.

The town too tough to die. I still remember my first visit here. My girlfriend in college surprised me with a trip here on my 21st birthday and I had my first legal drink at Big Nose Kate's Saloon. Tombstone is pretty touristy today because of all the movies that have been made about it, But the one that came out in 1993 is the one that made this place popular. I've always enjoyed the history behind this town and the Wild West stories that have been told through movies and books. There is a lot to do in Tombstone. Just know that most of the attractions will cost you a little money. There are also a number of restaurants and saloons you can visit if you are hungry or just want a drink. Even though most of the original buildings were destroyed by fire, many were rebuilt. Tombstone boomed in the late 1800's because of silver, The gunfight at the O.K. Corral in 1881 put this town on the map and you can see actors reenact the gunfight at the original location. Big Nose Kate's Saloon and Crystal Palace are popular places for drinks and food. The Bird Cage Theatre, Cochise County Courthouse, and Boothill Cemetery are other historic spots that you can visit that remain almost unchanged. For lodging, the Tombstone Grand Hotel is a hotel many visitors stay at because of how close it is to everything. I used to make a lot of trips here back in the day. It's a little too packed for my taste these days. But I occasionally will stop in for lunch or a drink if I am in the southeast AZ area on a road trip. There are a few places you can dine at that are away from the downtown area. Plan on parking a few blocks from the main road (Allen St) as spots fill up the closer you get to the main attractions. If you have never been, I definitely recommend checking this place at least once in your life. Especially if you are a fan of western movies. read more

We are deep in the Southwest here. When people talk about the Wild West, they're talking about towns like Tombstone. Originally founded in 1877 by a silver prospector, the town grew significantly as more silver was extracted from local mines in what turned out to be the largest productive silver district in Arizona. The population went from around 1000 to around 14,000 in less than seven years in the 1880s. The city is world renowned for the historic gunfight between the Earp Brothers and The Cowboys including Ike and Billy Clanton, Frank and Tom McLaury, and Billy Claiborne. The shootout took place on October 26, 1881 and is reenacted daily at the O.K. Corral. I was here quite early in the morning, before the shuffling feet kicked up too much of the dust. It's a nice town to walk through with a number of historic markers to read and many different shops with local stuff for sale including antiques and mementoes. Most of the shops don't seem to open until late morning. [Review 17499 overall - 85 in Arizona - 1017 of 2022.] read more

This place is interesting. Has that old west feel. A nice little western town in the middle of nowhere. We did the shoot out show. I bought a cowboy hat and leather holster for one of my handguns...Fairly priced and a nice place to just feel WESTERN. A good place to visit and seriously more exciting and more of a tourist spot for me compared to Grand Canyon (which we also visited on this trip) which was a rip off and honestly boring. If you could do one...This is way better than seeing a hole in the ground. read more

Getting ready for a taste of history. We made the 2.5-hour trip to Tombstone for the day. The experience takes you back in time and allows you to envision how it once was. There are many shops and activities, even a staged gunfight (selected times, so check before you go or you will miss it), and many historic buildings with a story. Parking could have been better, so be prepared to walk. A little dusty and dirty. The ride to Tombstone was just as interesting as Tombstone itself. You go through several small towns (drive in and out). I would not want to take the drive at night, but for a day trip, it was fine. read more

If you've watched any western movie and had any sense of fascination in the environment/setting, a visit to the historic town of Tombstone, Arizona is in order. It's about an hour and fifteen minutes to 2 hours outside of Tucson depending on where in Tucson you originate. There's quite a bit of real history in Tombstone, dating back to the mining days, when there was a lot of money to be made or taken, which resulted in quite a bit of crime and lawlessness...the foundation for any western movie where you see a gunfight. Although I don't know the detailed history of that time, the likes of Doc Holliday and Wyatt Earp were among the notable locals that roamed these streets. There's about 3-4 main blocks in the heart of town built up like the old west, and they're pedestrian only so you can get a feel for the place, including stagecoaches and cowboys dressed up roaming around. There's a couple of saloons and restaurants, and also both a coffee and candy shop. There's shops aplenty to see you touristy western gear and souvenirs, and there's various places to tour like the Bird Cage Theatre and the OK Corral. All in all, the architecture is great and it's a fun place to roam around for a bit, and even take on a gunfight if that's your interest. The locals and shop owners were incredibly friendly, and a band had set up to play music for visitors. Most of the structures on the main street are recreations, as much of the town was lost in various fires, but the Bird Cage Theatre is an original building dating back to the 1800s, and is said to be haunted (or so I was told). I can't say that I've ever been to a town quite like Tombstone before, and probably never will again, but it was a fun and unique experience to check off the bucket list, and I'm sure it'll be a nice story to tell anyone who is interested in the old west. The town is really well done and I recommend a visit to anybody remotely interested in the western genre, as a side trip when visiting Tucson. read more

We are an adventure seeking couple and try to find the good in all of our travels.....I reeeeeallly wanted to enjoy this town. The stores are mostly tourist traps with the same things to offer. The attractions and buildings are in poor condition. We were told that the theater is the only original building left in town, so we expected it to be shabby. We were not disappointed. The rest of the town appears to have zero maintenance. Except a few of the sidewalk boards have recently been replaced outdoors. Boot Hill Cemetary was the laughing stock of our trip. And the men's restroom had not been cleaned in at least two weeks. We could smell it when we walked in! Restaurants-the waits were long. And sub-par fair make it not worth the time or money. Restrooms (2) in town were DEPLORABLE!! I could go into detail but I will spare you the visual as it may cause severe nausea. My male partner said the men's room was the worst he had ever encountered. The reenactments did not use any microphones so the story was completely lost with the large trucks passing behind the outdoor theater. The ONLY saving grace was the ice cold Sasparilla on the outskirts of town! If you get off the Main Street, expect extremely shabby surroundings. The town looks like a circus troop had just come to town and taken over abandoned buildings. Use your time and money to adventure to another beautiful place in the area. #touristtrap read more

Not worth the drive. Used to be fun with dark musky stores and hidden museums now it is all over priced made in China. And no one seems to be happy to be working in any of the stores. I miss the Tombstone of the 70's-80's. I do like the dirt road and no traffic on main road. I was looking forward to a walk down memory lane. read more

Tombstone , I spent the weekend there and was given terrible service at two restaurants. First, when I ate at the Crystal Palace Saloon the meal I ordered had green beans with the meal - when I got the bill the waitress added $3.00 to the bill for green beans - I have been the before in the last two years and knew that the that the waitress had been working there a while and she had to know the menu. When I mentioned the over charge she tried to claim she was new there ( RIP_OFF?) - At the The Longhorn Restaurant the next day I went for breakfast and ordered coffee, the three egg omelet with ha browns and toast. As a cook for three years in the military, I know the difference between a three egg omelet and a two egg omelet and the omelet was not fluffy at all, it was flat and definitely only two eggs. The has browns were over cooked to the point of being hard - The toast was cold, not buttered and no jelly I had to asked twice for both jelly and butter- when I was finished with the meal she did not give a check, she came to the table and told me the bill was $24.00 and did not show me any proof of the cost and I had to INSIST she print out my bill - She gave me a disgusted look and acted as if it was an insult that I should not have asked for a print out for the meal. If you go to tombstone bee very careful and check and thing you buy at these two places' read more

While we were in the area visiting relatives, we decided to venture out to Tombstone. A few hints we'd like to share: - We bought tickets for events online a day or two beforehand, and planned them for the earliest available times. To get them out of the way and of course so we wouldn't be caught in that mid-afternoon heat. - We packed lots of water and related drinks, a lunch and yes sun screen and dressed appropriately. "When in Tombstone..." (Or is it Rome?). Well, you get the idea. - Also made a budget for what we allowed ourselves to spend as not to go haywire on things (I did get my stickers and magnets though). Overall, as a day trip it turned out pretty good. Our kids are aged 12-19 and they seemed interested and proactive; not into the Tombstone movies or anything but yeah, I do believe a good time was had. Arriving earlier before anything was really opened was nice for window shopping. Recommendations? The Rose Bush Museum with the world's largest rose bush. For a small entrance fee you get to see it and a brief history of western life from various artifacts. In my opinion it was worth it. read more

Tombstone AZ is a total tourist trap and I thoroughly enjoyed it. If you want a few hours of Old-Timey Fun it's a great stop between Bisbee and Tucson. The main drag is pedestrian only and lined with a plank boardwalk and plenty of old west style buildings. You'll be regularly accosted by costumed desperadoes describing why their version of the OK Gunfight is the best ("the most historically accurate", "features actors from the movie" etc) so choose carefully! Apparently this town is big enough to support several gunfight recreations. You'll also find innumerable souvenir stores, places to gear up in western cosplay, old timey photo booths, ice cream purveyors and much more. Have a shot of whiskey in a vintage saloon, explore an old theater, take a stagecoach tour, dress up like a lady of the night - or head over to Tombstone Brewing for a tasty microbrew. I personally enjoyed the Courthouse museum which has authentic artifacts from the towns history. An enjoyable, slightly cheesy stop that has something to appeal to most people. read more

We stopped on our way back from Bisbee and have to say that this is a highly western-themed small town. Not many blocks overall but one complete street is made just like 70's and 80's themed completely with lots of crowds. In fact, everyone in that town seems to be on that particular street only. Tons of restaurants, shops, and western rides including the gun show. Definitely worth the stop. However, I should say that finding a public restroom is impossible here. My wife had to use the restaurant restroom eventually. I wish the city had that thought for the tourist. read more

Tombstone is an icon... a symbol of the Old West.. a town too tough to die! And Tombstone's Main Street plays to every little cowpoke's fantasy! From gunfights to a stagecoach to a shootout at the OK Corral, it is cowboy country! They do a great job of living up to the legends. They are all friendly and welcoming. For example , visit Bronco Trading and check in with ol' John Rodgers or his buddy, artist Jimmy Green. You can see a sample of his art in the photos and he can be found on Facebook. You could spend a whole day just sitting in some fanciful saloons listening to live music, shopping for western wear, taking a Main Street tour in the stagecoach, listening to the history of the town. Then, spend another few days seeing nearby sights, like Karchner Caverns or Colossal Cave. Spend some time at White Water Draw and watch the sandhill cranes come and go. The whole area is a fun place to visit! read more

It's kitschy and a total tourist trap, but we went just to get out of my parents' house for a few hours. We went alone at first, but the rest of my family eventually caught up with us right as we were sitting down to lunch. There are plenty of places to park - both in lots and on the street - but it does get busy. They have the re-enactments of the famous shoot-out, of course, as well as a ton of historical markers pointing out information about the site you're staring at and its significance to the town and the people. The shops are pretty much all the same; you've seen one, you've seen them all. That is, of course, a sweeping generalization, but you do tend to see the same things sold in each shop. You can buy everything from custom-made boots to old-timey outfits to jewelry (heavy on the turquoise) to books to sweets to souvenirs. We walked into almost every store on our first walk through the town, and got into a fun and friendly conversation with the owner of a clothing shop. She was originally from California and had retired out in this area, so we had a lot to chat about. She was by far the friendliest person we met in Tombstone that day. There's plenty to do and experience, if you take the time to wander. We didn't pay for the shoot-out recreation, but we did walk to the back side of the corral and saw the signs pointing to the actual location - which isn't where they do the show, by the way. It's a good way to kill some time when you're in the area, and it seemed like they had a number of good tours running over the holiday weekend. read more

Amazing place to take the family to learn lots of history in regards to this little town. The town is small but the hearts of the individuals are big. Fun and casual place to spend some time at and check on a couple of shows while there. A lot of the towns men and women volunteer their time so some of the locations are based on donations. Many of the Rangers that do still work the town or also volunteers. This is an A++ tourist town. read more

I hate to admit this...but I'm not a big fan of history. But I really enjoyed Tombstone! I have learned that going to the actual places in history makes it much more interesting. No, it's not exactly the same as it was back then. Yes, it's a tourist area. But, it was a wonderful visit and I learned a lot. I would go back again and recommend it highly. We stayed at Tombstone RV Park, about a mile from town, which was a great base. They gave us a pack of information that helped us get started and things to read to learn more about the town. We drove toward Tombstone and decided to stop at Boot Hill. I highly recommend going to Boot Hill. We went into for dinner when we arrived in town. We ate at the Longhorn and recommend it. Most shops closed at 5 but we were able to walk down Allen Street familiarizing ourselves with places to go and things to do. We did get to do the tour of The Bird Cage which took about 2 hours and was very interesting. Looking for bullet holes, which were everywhere, made you realize that grabbing a drink after work wasn't as relaxing back then ;) We spent the next day visiting Tombstone and seeing and doing as much as we could. We ate lunch at the Chuckwagon which was good. We did a whole lot of walking. There is a trolley and a Stagecoach that take you on tours of the town. It's an easy way to learn the town. One and a half days was enough to make us happy but I can see taking your time to see the area could take longer. Our favorites (no order since they were all different) are: OK Corral-listening to the tale while seeing where they were was fascinating. The Bird Cage-described above Boot Hill-very interesting walking among the graves. Watch for rattlers and desert centipedes. Both were seen when we were there. Big Nose Kate's Saloon-gorgeous stained glass, air conditioning & cold sarsaparilla Allen Street-just walking down the dusty dirt road or on the wooden sidewalk was interesting. Looking in and shopping in the shops was fun. Tombstone Courthouse-interesting. read more

Tombstone AZ is a throwback to the old west, founded around 1880, and much of the history remains. It is about an hour south of Tucson and definitely caters to tourists. There is plenty of free parking as well. The OK corral is still there and they have shows at certain times of the day with shootouts, music, pictures, videos, etc. There are stage coach rides and other things available for tourists. Places to eat a meal or get some snacks or coffee. Plenty of souvenir shops selling all kinds of items, and there is a cigar place as well. You can easily walk from 1 side of the main area to the other in 10-15 minutes minutes. The streets are not paved entirely, but not just dirt roads either. Watch out for the horse droppings. There is a park that has some shade, a covered structure and picnic tables, swings, and a bathroom. If you want to see the old west, and experience a slice of american history, then this is a good spot to check out for a few hours. There are plenty of vintage buildings including 2 city halls, the courthouse, the bird cage, etc. Every person we ran into and talked to was extremely friendly and helpful. I posted around 50 pictures to give you a glimpse of what you might see while you are there. I have visited twice in the last 8 years or so. read more

Outside of the main drag is the infamous Boot Hill. The staged gunfight re-creation is fun and the museums are all fascinating. There also is the Worlds largest Rose bush covering over 8,000 square feet. The folks are friendly and hospitable, people walking their dogs all stop and chat and overall it's a fine trip. read more

I first came to Tombstone about 10 years ago for the first time and last week visited again. Very little has changed. It's located about a 75 minute drive from Tucson or 30 minutes south from I-10. Whats unique about visiting here is that this is a real town with West Allen Street and it's side streets dedicated to the old west Tombstone that people come to see. There is no admission charge to the town and parking is free! The free parking lots are all near West Allen Street with free street parking too. West Allen Street is closed to vehicle traffic and is for pedestrian and horse drawn carriages only. When walking around many people are dressed in Old Western wear adding to the authentic look. There are several stores that are open selling everything from ice cream to western wear and Tombstone souvenirs. Also there are a few sit down restaurants and museums and shows that do require admission. Stagecoach rides are available too. My recommendation would be to arrive no earlier than noon for lunch. I have eaten at Big Nose Kate's before and thought the food was a 3. I'm not sure if any of the restaurants are much better than that. After lunch stroll around as it won't take you more than an hour to walk around and see it all as the western part of the town is only about 3 blocks long. Since you are coming to Tombstone you will probably want to buy tickets to see the re-enactment of the Gunfight at the OK Corral in the afternoon. Beginning at around 4 p.m. you will notice that the crowds will start thinning out and by 5 p.m. the street will be mostly deserted with most stores and attractions closing. After then only a few restaurants and a couple of the bars stay open. So my tip is to arrive around noon to 1 p.m. and plan to leave around 4 p.m. I don't see the need to spend the night here. Either go back to Tucson or head to Bisbee to spend the night. I give an overall score of 3 meaning that visiting Tombstone is A-OK. I would recommend coming if only in the immediate area. During my visit last week, I got bored because of its relatively small size. For your first visit, it should hold your interest better. I think spending 3 hours here including eating is plenty of time to see and do what you want to. read more

Tombstone Az the town that is a museum & a museum that is a town Literally. Here we are @ one of the most historic western towns in the country and the setting is 1880s Apache Country. Silver is found and the town of tombstone quickly becomes the fastest growing city's in the west. Man I would love to go back for a week and just see what life was like here. Gun slingers cowboys of the west oh man what a trip it would be. I must say that after spending most of the day walking the streets it's pretty obvious this town is the Venus fly trap for people. I don't think I've ever seen a tourist trap like this place. Every storefront u walk into u will find all types of trinkets to purchase. The real deal here though is the town itself. It's really hard to grasp how important this town is to our nations history. So much had happened here way back in the 1800 that we tend to forget. Silver was found here so it naturally brought people from the east to the Wild West literally. It's really is a cool place to visit but be prepared to pony up some dough to see places as well as eat. It isn't cheap read more

Tombstone and ok corral is so famous, most everyone knows about this place. I often got asked from out of town visitors about his place but I couldn't say anything as I never visited before. Since I was visited Kartchner caverns, it was just ideal time to visit as drive was only 30 mins. Unless you are really into the western movie, or first time visiting Arizona, there wasn't much wow factor from someone from Phoenix. I almost felt sad for them. Thus being said, still a good place to visit for about a few hours if you like western movies and are visiting from out of Arizona. They do good job maintaining character from old west time. read more
